8 triangles will fit inside a 10 sided decagon
get a cut out shape of octagon, then get cut out triangles and try to fit in the triangles covering all the octagon but here is the solution... j
A 5 sided pentagon would fit the given description
It depends on the size of the square and the sizes and shapes of the triangles.
A regular shape such as a square or rectangle - length times width. If it is an irregular shape, fit known sized squares and triangles within the shape's border and work out area of a square and a triangle times the number of squares and triangles.
By looking at other polygons with less sides, we can see how many triangles they can fit. In a 4-sided polygon (square), you can fit 2 triangles. In a 5-sided polygon (pentagon), you can fit 3 triangles. In a 6-sided polygon (hexagon), you can fit 4 triangles. In an 8-sided polygon (octagon), you can fit 6 triangles. The pattern here is the number of triangles is equal to the number of sides minus 2. T = N - 2 So... 50 - 2 = 48. 48 triangles can fit into a 50-sided polygon.
You see how many triangles fit into the shape and multiply by 180 degrees

6 Triangles!!
Some shapes that fit that condition are parallelograms, scalene triangles, and trapezoids.
The number of triangles that we can fit in a regular polygon with n sides is n - 2.
